Visit Skills Scotland

Book Your Free Visit Today

Our Skills Scotland series are designed with 14-24-year olds in mind, but the events are free for anyone who would like to visit. Our events are accessible and inclusive for people of all abilities.

Whether you are a student, parent, teacher or just trying to figure out your next steps, Skills Scotland is open to everyone. A visit to any of our events will ensure you understand all of the pathways available to you, whether that’s further/higher education, apprenticeships or just straight into the world of work.

Skills Scotland brings you face to face with your future.

Visiting as a school group? (ideal for years S4, S5 and S6)

A group visit is a great way for your school, college, sixth form or community group to deliver dynamic careers education, information, advice and guidance and to ensure your students have a meaningful interaction with employers, further education and higher education providers as outlined in the government’s careers strategy.

Visiting on your own or with family/friends?

Parents, carers, families and teachers want to have fun too, so there is a dedicated evening opening giving you a chance to find out more about the opportunities available to young people. You can try out the hands on demonstrations and interactive features whilst talking to experts.

A great range of exhibitors will be waiting to meet you and let you know all about the options they have available for young people, we recommend you take a look at the exhibitor list and find out more about what the different companies and organisations can offer. Meeting in this informal settling will help you help your child plan for their future.

Open to all, the evening opening gives a wide audience a unique setting to ask plenty of questions and collect valuable resources and information. If you are unable to attend the evening opening you are welcome to visit at any time during the day time opening instead.
